Resumen: Biodegradable magnesium (Mg) alloys represent a promising class of materials for next-generation biomedical implants, particularly endoluminal devices. Their major limitation, however, lies in the difficulty of controlling corrosion in the aggressive physiological environment, where chloride-rich solutions promote rapid dissolution
Resumen: «Additive manufacturing processes are predominantly governed by complex thermomechanical interactions that critically influence the mechanical properties and the quality of the final product. This study first developed a mathematical framework of general small-strain thermo-mechanics that can incorporate an arbitrary

Resumen: The presence of minor grain boundary solutes such as boron and zirconium can have significant consequences for the production of superalloys using additive manufacturing methods. On the one hand, their presence in the bulk chemistry is crucial for achieving
Resumen: Optimizing the performance of engineering alloys during manufacturing and service conditions requires a keen understanding of their microstructure evolution under applied temperature and load. It is thus a challenging task, because under the influence of an external load and/or
Resumen: Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is efficiently absorbed by the atmosphere of the Earth and its relevance and usefulness in materials processing has been often disregarded being this type of studies relegated to astrophysics and space science and exploration. In this
Resumen: Additive manufacturing (AM) is revolutionizing how we synthesize, produce, and use metallic materials. However, out of hundreds of commercially available engineering alloys, only a handful are readily printable. This arises from the extreme heating and cooling rates associated with
